Article Synopsis
- - Critical Casimir forces act on particles in a near-critical fluid, allowing researchers to manipulate particle behavior based on surface properties and small temperature changes.
- - The study explores how these forces can trap colloidal particles by using specially designed substrates with contrasting surface properties, enabling different levitation effects like sedimentation and point levitation.
- - By analyzing various parameters, the research indicates that while the conditions for point levitation become limited when moved away from critical points, the trapping force increases, highlighting potential applications in sorting colloids by size and measuring thermodynamic properties.
